Key Benefits of ERP Systems in Supply Chain Management

The integration of supply chain management and ERP is beneficial to any distribution and manufacturing business looking to increase speed, efficiency, and customer satisfaction across all its operations.

Supply Chain Management (SCM) involves the way businesses interact with their suppliers and partners to obtain the necessary resources and raw materials used to manufacture finished products to distribute to market.

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) has the potential to manage and streamline overall business operations by integrating various systems and processes from production management and order intakes to sales and customer service.

ERP plays a vital role in the supply chain management process by reducing waste, increasing productivity and eliminating operational inefficiencies.

It works the way you want! Microsoft Dynamics NAV looks and works like Microsoft Office which means that you can get to work immediately with no change-over delays. It is also role-tailored to give employees relevant insights for their day-to-day work with accurate and instantaneous information. Data that is so readily available can solve not only today’s problems but also plan for tomorrow. With its cloud and on-premise deployment, you also have the flexibility to choose to work when and where you want – at the office, at home, or on the road.

Combining an integrated and powerful ERP system like Dynamics NAV with an efficient SCM strategy can result in massive market advantages, of which we mention the following:

Automate workflow and speed transactions

Improve efficiency across companies in the supply chain

Reduce overheads and operational costs

Decrease operational errors and bottlenecks

Provide flexibility to meet changing market demands

Account for scalability and business expansion

Improve customer service and customer retention

Given the complex nature of supply chains, the ERP and SCM integration is essential for the management of planning and distributing resources, and the implementation of a faster, more efficient, and qualitative supply chain process.
